Mechanical counterbalance lifting beam

Counterbalance lifting beam

The counterbalance lifting beam is used for:

a) double-sided suspension - transport of loads when the center of gravity of the load is offset from the crane hook.

b) one-sided suspension - eg transporting loads outside the reach of the crane hook or loading loads in enclosed spaces.

The counterbalance beam is equipped with an electromotive moving counterweight. By default, the counterweight is located below the upper hinge of the beam, the beam is in horizontal position. After the load is suspended, the counterweight is moved to the required position so that the lifting beam and load are in horizontal position.

The double-sided suspension is used eg when transporting different types of loads with eccentric load center of gravity. After hanging the load and a slight lifting the operator will move the counterweight to balance the beam to the horizontal position.

If the load is suspended on one side, the counterweight must be moved to the expected position before start of the transportation. When lifting the beam, only slight corrections are made by shifting the counterweight.

The counterweight is moved electromotorically. For this reason, it is necessary to provide power supply from the crane, or it is possible to equip the beam with its own batteries to supply the electric motor.

The traverse is controlled by a button control which is connected to the traverse by a cable. Alternatively it can be equipped with radio control.
